This class was tough.

Course Overview:

This course is tough - there's no denying that. But it's honestly one of the most interesting and useful courses I've ever taken. It helped me both with understanding material for the MCAT, and it helped lay a solid foundation for my higher courses in biology. It also helps cover credits needed for schools such as pharmacy, nursing, dental, etc.

Course highlights:

You will mostly learn the basics of every body system. There is definitely more depth to cover, but you're able to review a lot of material in a short time span. The anatomy portion (lab) of the class was the most difficult, in my opinion. Nothing more than straight memorization, but depending on how quickly you're able to do that will determine how much time you have to spend each week. Lab quizzes are weekly, and there are 2 practicals (finals, if you will).

Hours per week:

9-11 hours

Advice for students:

Honestly, just make sure to spend an adequate amount of time weekly. Make sure to not let the anatomy memorization build up or sneak up on you. You will surely regret it if you do!! Also, heavily go thru the outlined topics and highlights for each unit in the book - at times you will be expected to have learned more than what was taught in class.
